Commenting on the success of the Placement, High Peak’s Interim Chairman, Geoff King said:
“I am very pleased with the support of long-term shareholders in addition to the representation by new and first-time professional investors shown in this capital raise, which confirms the attractiveness of the HPR royalty portfolio for investors.
A stronger balance sheet is appropriate as we move to improve our working capital position during what is a financially buoyant period on the equity market amidst recent general commodity price volatility and the uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Together with the associated US$15 million finance facility with Macquarie Bank we are pleased to reassure our shareholders with new interested participants, and a level of balance sheet strength with and a finance facility that positions HPR to manage capital allocation and consider other opportunities as they arise.
I’d also like to thank the participating Directors Mr Anthony Wooles and recently appointed Mr David Croll and Mr James Knowles who have all participated in the Director Placement portion of the capital raise to be approved by shareholders at the upcoming 2021 Annual General Meeting.”
The Placement (excluding Director participation) will be undertaken in a single tranche of 17,250,000 fully paid ordinary shares for a total of $690,000 ( Placement Shares ) using the Company’s existing Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity to institutional and professional investors under the capital raising announced to ASX on 23 September 2021 by way of application to the ASX of a trading halt.
